Sean walked right up to the young man, put his foot on his chest, looked down at him and asked, “You said it was Cornelia who called you first.”
“Right?”
His voice was cold and Sean pressed slightly as he spoke, causing the young man to feel a tightness in his chest and gasp for breath.
“I, I…”
The young man was about to speak when Sean interrupted him.
“You also said that Cornelia was the one who offered to meet you in private, get you a room, and sleep with you.”
“Right”
The force in his feet increased a little more!
The young man’s face was red, the veins in his neck were bulging, his legs were beating like frogs, and he shook his head in vain, “Sir, actually, I…”
“You gave Cornelia a $100,000 deposit, and to this day, she hasn’t paid you back.”
“Is that right?”
One question after another was hurled at the young man. Each time Sean asked, he put a little more pressure on his feet.
After three consecutive questions, the young man’s insides roiled and roared, his Adam’s Apple rolled, and he had an impulse to spurt blood on the spot.
“Are you deaf? Answer my question!”
Sean was very aggressive.
“Sir, I…”
When he met Sean’s icy gaze, the young man almost cried and he thought to himself, “Oh, my god, I’m not deaf! It hurts. I’m a fucking coward. Can’t I be a fucking coward?”
“I would like to answer your question, but the point is, you have to give me a chance to talk.”
“You won’t let me talk, and you blame me for not being good?”
“Come on!”
“Please!”
“We are all men. Please give me a change to show off in front of my girl. Could you please stop it?”
“Please!”
Suddenly, the young man could not bear it. A mouthful of old blood spurted out of his mouth, forming a column of blood, which sputtered half a meter high!
Like a red fountain…
Sean was quick to see and move his right leg back so he wouldn’t let the blood spray on his pants.
“It’s so dirty!”
Sean gave the young man a contemptuous look.
The young man put his hand over his chest, and when he heard Sean’s words, his face turned terrible. “You think I wanted to do this?” he thought to himself.
“Was it my fault?”
“Wow, I’ve learned a lot today. When it comes to shameless, you’re the best.” He thought.
“You have one minute to answer my question.”
Sean was worried about Phyllis, Nicola, and Dean. He didn’t want to waste time here, so he said, “Remember, you only get one shot, and what you say next better be the answer I want.”
“Otherwise, you will never speak again in your life!”
A threat!
An undisguised threat!
